That’s because we know they are women. And that trans men are men. And that non-binary people are non-binary. Gender is a construct and a spectrum.
Sex is a combination of about 6 different biological processes, many of which do not allign as well as 8th grade bio taught you.
It breaks my heart that the art museum or the zoo isn’t considered a good date for adults.
Places full of facts to spark conversation?! No.
Places where you are eating at each other?! Top tier.

Woman: *clearly enjoying the proposal*
Man on the internet: NOBODY BETTER PROPOSE TO ME THIS WAY!
Don’t worry, friend. I think you’re in the clear.
Gonna tweet this fact separately:
Even when they aren’t around, use their pronouns.
Yes, even in stories from your shared past.
Yes, even if there is no way they will know.
Misgendering out of earshot is not an excuse.
@RaeGun2k
In grade school they teach you that you have a “left brain” or “right brain” dominance. In my PhD we use that myth as a punchline. It has merit in teaching children a super complex concept, but it’s only for children.
Occam didn’t say simple was right, just that it was simple
@hachx0
The audacity of some people to want to house the homeless or tax the churches to help pay to house the homeless. It’s almost like they got the idea from some old book.
I just discover this product exists and I need to say something:
DO NOT STRAP YOUR CHILD’S HEAD INTO THE CAR SEAT.
Accidents or rapid deceleration could lead to horrific spine injuries up to and including internal decapitation.
These are awful.

Fun fact: the planets don’t cause distress, it’s the inevitable explanation from Neil deGrasse Tyson that ruins your day.
@feminemi1y
It seems pretty clear to me that you’re simply pointing out that babies are not the usual result which is like… obviously true.
That other part seems a little bad faith.

@carterhambley
All im saying is that we need to wait for more details about the rubble. I know it’s been 19 years but I haven’t heard enough to justify me justifying the shooting.
@emrazz
“I’ve discussed this with many other men” translates to “I’ve discussed this with like 3 other dudes and a million others have laughed in my stupid face”.
Also: barf on this dude.
@AllisonRFloyd
@NoLore
Also like… a complete unawareness around rural AND city schooling. I wish we could all afford to live in bikable places but that is super privileged
Okay. Weird question. Do cis men not hold babies? I had a lot of fun baby holding with my family this weekend and apparently none of my brother’s in-laws will hold babies.
Am I the weird one?
@MartinKulldorff
No a huge fan of history are ya? The Plague, The Spanish Flu, HIV and Other STIs… Oh! And things that were considered diseases but aren’t actually spreadable. Like mental illness and the justification for stuffing them into dark buildings all the way through the 1960s.
@jack_turban
“Professionalism” is a set of rules meant to make people mirror the standards of white, high ses, Cis men. Im happy to help dismantle that ridiculousness
@girldrawsghosts
What is so frustrating is that dealing with SI isn’t something that we are trained with as a standard and each state is different with the involuntary hold rules which *only* hurts our clients.
It makes me want to scream. I had to seek out risk training.
@MatthewKadish
We’re all just gonna let Matt use the phrase “decades” and then show us two characters from the last few years?
Also two of these are the same character.

@neiltyson
Neil only has about 0.00185% of the earth’s population in his twitter reach. And the average human’s voice only goes about 4 city blocks at its loudest. Thus he can’t ruin EVERYTHING.
(See Neil? It’s awful)
@TheBlondeRN
This makes me unreasonably angry. I’m so tired of this happening at schools. Just let kids use the restroom, this holdover from a time when we hit kids with rulers is functionally useless, especially at this age.
@creation247
By age 40 you should be:
- self aware enough to realize that setting ridiculous standards steeped in being white, Christian, and wealthy as a precursor is a pretty goofy thing to tweet about.
- able to delete terrible tweets
@MaraWilson
My favorite part of this video was just before they filmed it when he insisted “YOU’RE HOLDING IT UPSIDE DOWN, REBECCA”
And then he bitches about it until she turns it over... then this happens.
@ButterflyMia10
@the_real_mathis
@AOC
@realDonaldTrump
Is this before or after they brutalize LGBTQIA people, demonize Muslims, completely destroy poor white people, treat immigrants like monsters, or take away women’s rights?
All that seems pretty “exclusive” and “not nice”.
@girldrawsghosts
This is the kind of thing that really hurts. She probably had chores, and she probably had plans for the coming week, and group projects.
She was a normal teenaged girl and someone killed her becuase we had wave transphobia.
@tomhfh
Because flashing in other contexts is illegal and it’s embarrassing that it’s taken this long for the internet to catch up.
Though it’s mostly because people like to cover their own behavior. Food for thought.
@StoneElliott2
@AllisonRFloyd
This one time, a friend had me drive them to the vet to pick up thier dog. The vet described clearing the muck out of a cyst on the dog’s butt.
It’s impressive that the muck grew up and learned to tweet, but I’m not sure the name “Stone” is really that clever
@dowhiletrue
@Damsoqueen
@OshelleParr
Given what you typed it’s clear that “enough women” translates to “one woman broke my heart and turned me into a fragile dude who doesn’t understand sex but really loves Incel Reddit posts”.
I see why you shortened it for character counts.
@sarahk_massey
@FLHouseDems
@FLGOPMajority
It’d be way better if they stopped dancing and started forcing the GOP to stop wiping out a group of people.
Bet you could still do that to a rhythm.
Can we please talk about how Zelenskyy is a hero in the current context but he’s also a really complicated politician with serious human rights issues that has been targeting non-Ukrainians, women and LGBTQIA+ people?
So maybe we chill on “falling in love?”
@DuchessSexpert
Goddamnit, if I had a dime for every little girl who comes to our office and talks about how she gets body shamed at home, I’d no longer have student loans and I would have bought a catapult to punt their parents down the street.
@ZenaMOBrien
They sure can be denied. For starters, in LGBTQIA+ relationships we are talking about two humans who are consenting with each other being treated badly because some folks love magic sky people a bit too much.
Beastiality is sexual assault because one party cannot consent.
@ERnurse86
The only after birth abortions I’ve heard of are currently traumatizing several generations of children because people like to cosplay the military.
@girldrawsghosts
I always think about this in terms of sales, the “5 yeses” principle.
Once you’ve said yes to subservient ways of thinking to God, the “man of the household”, the hierarchy to those in the clergy, and finally to elders without question… the pathway to here becomes scarily tiny
@alindguzik
I may not love a lot of her methods. But it’s silly for us not to realize that these seats were paid for by someone else and she just took a solid opportunity to normalize “tax the rich”.
I think imma give her props on this one. Past me was short sighted.
@acweyand
I work in pediatrics, it’s still REALLY FRICKIN BAD for children and I’m not sure why this is a controversial point. Not to mention the immense damage to the lungs, heart, and brain.
@gbosslet
Mine was seeing a long COVID patient in their 40s who’s cognition was lagging behind the dementia patients we also see. But sure, putting a mask on is really rough.
@NickAdamsinUSA
So that makes the list:
1. Pearl Harbor
2. Columbine/Sandy Hook
3. 9/11
4. A distinctly awful pillow guy who loves conspiracy theories got his phone taken because it’s likely his a legit criminal.
Did I get this right?
@FeminemiIy
Weird. It’s almost as if you aren’t even considering that some of them are obviously just being women for the day. Because that’s how it works according to that woman who wrote the wizard book.

Oh, and conservatives. Who are famous for well thought out arguments.
@AlanaFeral
My favorite part is when you refute the article they didn’t read and their “gotcha” is a second, even more damning article that they didn’t read.
It’s like watching a mushroom do algebra.
@ZenaMOBrien
Comparing the two is manufacturing oppression. Which is gross. But yeah, the main issue here is that one animal cannot give enthusiastic consent and thus we are not defending sexual assaulters in this house.
@feminemi1y
I know this isn’t the point, but why not tell a kid what Crystal meth is? I would like them not to do it. Seems like explaining it might help.
Avoidance just gave us DARE and that didn’t go great.
@AJ_F612
This is a great idea. Children tend to internalize lessons really well when they can also see their parents as *mildly* flawed.
And it opens the door for a calm conversation if it happens again without shaming.
